Samenvatting:

If children are to access all phonics teaching effectively, they first need to know how to tune into and manipulate the sounds specifically needed for reading. The Right Start to Phonics shows readers how they can support children in gaining the skills they need to listen with accuracy, to differentiate between, manipulate and understand the sounds we hear. This experience will give them the knowledge and understanding needed to hear letter sounds and blend them together to eventually read words.

Drawing on the latest research, the book shows how Early Phonics can be embedded across your provision and fit into the daily routine of any setting or school. Part One explores the role of play, the adult and the learning environment in supporting early phonics and listening skills. This is followed by a wealth of easy-to-use activities to support the development and refinement of these hugely important skills in our youngest children. All the activities are simple to implement with easily sourced resources and cover a range of early phonic skills.

Full of playful, active and fun ideas to help young children develop the auditory skills they need to access the phonic code, this is essential reading for all early years and primary educators and parents.
